A driver marks a delivery done. A client asks for a statement. A campaign brings in a burst of sign-ups. Today the slow part runs while the customer waits, and when Salesforce or WhatsApp is slow, the update is lost. With Vercel Queues, the app hands the job to a queue and answers at once. A worker picks it up and retries until it is done.

The problem
What Queues SDK is
Facts from Vercel’s own pages, checked on 16 October 2026. The sources are at the end of this page.
How it works
Five steps. The customer gets an answer at step one, and the slow work carries on without them.

Step by step
Send
Your app sends a message
To a topic, with an optional delay, and answers the customer at once.
Store
Saved in three zones
The send call returns only after three availability zones have the message.
Pick up
A worker picks it up
Pushed to a Vercel Function, or pulled by a worker running anywhere.
Retry
Retried if it fails
If Salesforce or WhatsApp is slow, the message comes back and runs again.
Check
Safe to run twice
The worker checks an ID first, so a repeat delivery does no harm.
How it fits together
A request comes in from your website or app. The app sends the job to a topic and answers. Workers update Salesforce, send emails and WhatsApp messages, and build PDFs. Vercel Workflows run on the same queues underneath.

Use cases · worked examples
How Queues SDK fits into the work of the industries we serve, one step at a time.
Example 1 · Couriers, Dubai · Infographic
Today: At the end of the evening rush, drivers close hundreds of deliveries in minutes. Some customers never get the “delivered” message, and the hotline rings.
After: Each closed delivery becomes one queue message. Workers send the WhatsApp update and write to Salesforce, and anything that fails is retried.
Worked example, step by step
Every customer gets one “delivered” message, even on the busiest evening.
Example 2 · Financial services, Mumbai · Infographic
Today: Month-end statements are built one by one while the screen waits. The page times out halfway and nobody knows which clients got theirs.
After: Starting the run sends one message per client, in the Mumbai region. Workers build each PDF in the background and flag any that keep failing.
Worked example, step by step
Every statement is built, and the one that failed is known by name, not found by a client.
Example 3 · Marketing agency, Chicago · Infographic
Today: A client’s campaign email brings a burst of sign-ups. The client’s Salesforce rejects calls once it hits its API limit, and leads are lost.
After: Each sign-up is saved as a queue message and the visitor is thanked at once. Workers send leads to Salesforce in small batches and retry the ones it rejects.
Worked example, step by step
The campaign spike reaches Salesforce in full, a little later instead of never.

What Mindcat does
The assessment is free: a short read of the org and a written note. If you go ahead, the first build week is a fixed AED/SAR 14,900 (about USD 4,050), credited in full when you sign the build within 60 days. After go-live, we keep it patched, watched and changing every month.
